Councilmember Huizar works with Metro, LADOT to install 15 new Pedestrian Headstart Signals in DTLA

As part of his DTLA Forward initiative, Councilmember Huizar partnered with Metro and LADOT to secure Pedestrian Headstart Signals that allow pedestrians to get a head-start on automobiles in intersection and greatly reduce the risk of auto/pedestrian collisions. Also known as Leading Pedestrian Intervals, all the signals were installed at 15 intersections last week and this weekend through construction being done on the Regional Connector.

In 2014, during implementation of Councilmember Huizar’s Bringing Back Broadway Master Streetscape Plan’s Road Diet, Huizar requested and worked with LADOT to install the City’s first Pedestrian HeadStart Signals as a Pilot on Broadway crosswalks on 3rd and 4th Streets.
